    I was just reading about how our governor was accosted by a bunch of grown women. People find this amusing?! I don't care if you don't agree with his politics, there's this little thing called respect and CLASS. Confronting another human being as they're eating dinner with their family to spew your hate and discontent is disgusting! Grow the *kitten* up!

    I think I'm more upset/alarmed that they would choose to do that in front of his family. The dude's family has nothing to do with their "beef" and shouldn't have been involved in any way. This applies to any political or company official's family; they are not part of the issue you have with x, y, z, so leave them out of it.

    Crap like this is why we can't have nice things.

    Bingo!

    Welcome a day in the life of being a conservative. Welcome to dining in areas like DC. Welcome to being anywhere some groups are “peacefully” protesting. Welcome to having a differing opinion and expressing it. Yadda yadda yadda.

    I agree, but this is nothing new. It’s just a different family and , dare I say, a different political party.

    It’s messed up all around and, I suspect, is coming to a head.

    Feel free to start the debate because I don’t disagree without saying why. Grouchy face #2 here.

    Present company included, there are lots of lovely conservatives just as there are lots of horrible (insert wherever you fall in the political spectrum here). ETA: And vice versa. Or laterally. Or... parallelly?!?!

    It really is just a matter of increasing the level of discourse and respect for one another. Alas, these things (along with critical thinking and reading skills) have degraded year over year.

    I wanna blame Teletubbies. Either that or the global appetite for MTV as aspirational reality since the 80s 🤷🏿‍♀️

    This was not meant to turn into a political thing. This is honestly about people's behavior, regardless of their views.

    I'm going to hide under a rock now. 🥺

    Can we still blame Teletubbies and MTV for the world's ills though?

    I'm loving the changes in my body since going back to the gym. I think I'm at a point were I need new workout leggins because the ones I have are loose on my waist. It kinda sucks because most fitting rooms are closed and I can't try them on. I'm not a buy now, return later kind of person. If I buy something I have to be 100% sure of it. Maybe I'll just go a size smaller on the ones I have now but I wanted to try other patterns and Brands aside from the black ones that I wear. First world problems lol

    Scrunchy butt is the way to go. Check them out. We decided on the best ones, or IMHO mind we did, a while back.

    Wondering why my son and I didn’t just talk to each other instead of having a 30min text conversation.

    Congratulations!!! That is so awesome to read. 😀

    As for leggings... I cannot advocate enough for GRRRL next level leggings. They are magical, high waisted, super soft and slightly compressive, and make your *kitten* look ahhhhmazing.

    I will be looking into those, thank you! 😄

    They just had a massive clearance to prepare for new stock... So prob new designs. (these are a few years old, now, so not in stock... But new designs come in pretty regularly).

    They're on IG, too - and post product launch on there. ❤️

    The power entrance to my house is fused with 600A fuses.

    I’ve got to reroute some 8/2 I ran temporarily to a tankless water heater so I can make it permanent.

    It’s sorta intimidating. The contraption and all that disconnects the mains from the fuses.

    I would like to be able to transfer all the laundry from the washer to the dryer without a single article of clothing dropping to the floor.
